International Travel Policy for Yale College Students</h3> <p>International travel is best undertaken by well-informed travelers. All Yale College students are responsible for their own safety when traveling internationally, whether or not their activities abroad are funded by Yale awards or accorded credit by Yale. The University strongly encourages all members of the University community who are contemplating travel abroad for educational or other purposes to review thoroughly and to familiarize themselves with the political, health, crime, and other safety-related conditions prevailing in any country and specific locations within it. In addition to web-based information that is provided by various governments and the by the <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories.html/">US State Department</a>, the University encourages Yale students to consult the comprehensive website offered by <a href="https://ogc.yale.edu/erm/ISOS">International SOS</a>, a private travel emergency assistance provider engaged by Yale to support students, faculty, and staff who are traveling internationally.</p> <p>The <em>Yale University International Travel Policy for Yale College Students</em> determines to which countries travel is restricted. It is every student’s responsibility to be aware of this policy and to stay informed of any changes in the status of their planned destination.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div data-component-width="site" class="divider__wrapper"> <div data-divider-position="center" class="divider__inner"> <div data-animate-item="enabled" class="divider" data-divider-width="100"></div> </div> </div> <div data-component-width="site" data-component-alignment="left" data-component-variation="default" class="text-field"> <div class="text-field__inner"> <div class="text"> <blockquote><p><strong>The following provisions apply to all Yale College students who wish to undertake international travel that is:</strong></p> <ul> <li>funded by Yale, or</li> <li>awarded credit by Yale, or</li> <li>in connection with a trip abroad by a recognized student organization, as individuals or in groups.</li> </ul> </blockquote> <blockquote><p>Refer to the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and/or Embassy website for detailed entry requirements. In some cases, even if this Travel Policy allows for travel to a particular location, the country itself may limit entry based on the traveler’s citizenship and where the traveler has been, including transit countries.</p> </blockquote> </div> </div> </div> <div data-component-width="site" class="divider__wrapper"> <div data-divider-position="left" class="divider__inner"> <div data-animate-item="enabled" class="divider" data-divider-width="100"></div> </div> </div> <div data-component-width="site" data-component-alignment="left" data-component-variation="default" class="text-field"> <div class="text-field__inner"> <div class="text"> <p><strong>A.

If a Travel Advisory Level 4 is issued for a specific region of a country, then this restriction applies only to that region. Travel to other regions of the country is not restricted.<br> <br><strong>NOTE:</strong> Students are responsible for carefully following all State Department Travel Advisories at all levels. For example, an advisory might issue a “Do Not Travel” advisory to specific cities in a country or highlight the dangers of undertaking particular activities in that country. Students are expected to monitor such advisories and to take appropriate precautions, avoiding any specified areas or activities.<br> </li> <li><a href="https://www.travelsecurity.com/Page.aspx?pg=2&membershipno=11B824535">International SOS</a> has issued a Travel Global Risk Rating of “Extreme” or “High” for the country or a specific region of the country.<br> <br><strong>NOTE:</strong> Students are responsible for carefully following all International SOS Risk Ratings regardless of whether or not these ratings fall short of restricting student travel to the country. For example, a rating may be “Extreme” or “High” in specific cities in a country.

Yale reserves the right to decline to fund, award credit for, or otherwise sponsor or support any international undergraduate academic or extracurricular project in particular regions if it so decides. No exceptions to such restrictions will be made.</strong></p> <p>Travel restrictions will apply through the date of departure, and sponsoring offices or departments may enforce a travel restriction decision made in advance of the departure date. If such a restriction comes into effect after the student’s departure, the University reserves the right to end its sponsorship at that time, and to require the student to end the trip and leave the country. Such determinations will be made on a case-by-case basis.</p> <p><span><strong>NOTE: </strong>Sponsored* undergraduate travel to Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza is suspended until further notice. The travel restriction will remain in effect until January 31, 2025, at which time the restriction may be extended, altered, or removed. For sponsored travel eligibility of other locations in the Middle East and North Africa region, consult Section A above. </span></p> <p><span>*As described at the top of this page, sponsored undergraduate travel is awarded credit and/or funding from Yale or is in connection with a recognized organization as an individual or group.
